The heavy dictation cylinders are spun at a very high RPM on these shavers.  
Inspect the cylinder before you shave it for nicks in the rim or cracks.  Set 
the shaving blade to make light passes on the cylinder.  Close lid when 
shaving.  When shaving a cylinder, close the lid almost all the way before you 
flip the switch on, and flip switch off before fully raising lid.  Failure to 
observe one or a combination of any of these factors may result in a chunk of 
cylinder hitting you so hard in the forehead you will see stars.  Voice of 
experience.  Very possible to take out an eye, break a nose or teeth.  John M

Hi Loran

Sorry did'nt see your mail before I made a reply. One can see in the photo's  
the large drawer for the swarf (?shaved of wax). So its a fairly industrial  
strength machine. I havent tried to connect mine to the power supply to see  
how well it works in case I do damage to the national grid or myself.

regards
